Joshua 10:11-13
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
11 As they fled before Israel, while they were descending [the pass] to Beth-horon, the Lord cast great stones from the heavens on them as far as Azekah, killing them. More died because of the hailstones than the Israelites slew with the sword.
12 Then Joshua spoke to the Lord on the day when the Lord gave the Amorites over to the Israelites, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, be silent and stand still at Gibeon, and you, moon, in the Valley of Ajalon!
13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation took vengeance upon their enemies. Is not this written in the Book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of the heavens and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.

Joshua 10:11-13
New International Version
11 As they fled before Israel on the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah, the Lord hurled large hailstones(A) down on them,(B) and more of them died from the hail than were killed by the swords of the Israelites.
12 On the day the Lord gave the Amorites(C) over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel:
“Sun, stand still over Gibeon,
and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.(D)”
13 So the sun stood still,(E)
and the moon stopped,
till the nation avenged itself on[a] its enemies,
as it is written in the Book of Jashar.(F)
The sun stopped(G) in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.
